I don't have a camera of my own. I will see if I can get some photos.

Beautiful tank! Did you just set it up recently? I have noticed local stores selling this type of tank setups a year ago, but this is the first time seeing one in action.

Can you really fit a 150g sump in the stand?

My tank is 115g half cylinder, I bought mine from a Chinese importer before I had seen those 144g tanks appearing in LFS. I love the unobstructed view of the curved panel from one end to the other, unfortunately pictures often can not do its justice since camera can not adjust to the curvature like human eyes. I can certainly imagine how much better your tank looks in person.

Thanks. Yeah it was just setup. There isn't much under the stand except for a small ladder.

The 150 sump is in the next room.

Those Oceanic bowfronts are very nice looking tanks. Looks great man, keep us updated.

screw the picture of the sump, I want to see the room!

How much live rock do you have? That tank's a beauty.

I don't think that's a bowfront, I believe it's a semicircle.

I think it is around 275lbs of LR. I will have to relocate some to the sump as I add some more SPS.
